The NCAA Division III staff is collaborating with the Division
III College Sports Information Directors of America (D3SIDA) to
recognize outstanding work by sports information offices to
portray the division’s model of intercollegiate
athletics.

A feature produced by the University of Mary Washington
Sports Information Director Clint Often has been awarded
honorable mention in a quarterly recognition program jointly
sponsored by Division III and D3SIDA, as part of the
division’s Identity Initiative. "We believe the feature, titled 'Swimming in Success,' is among
the best work – including news releases, feature articles,
videos, blogs and other materials – produced in the Division
III membership from January through March 2013", said NCAA Vice
President for NCAA Division III Dan Dutcher. "The article is
particularly laudable for portraying the Division III attributes of
Proportion, Comprehensive Learning and Passion."

The work was selected by a panel of sports information officers
representing the D3SIDA board of directors, and was among nominees
for top honors. The panel selected a video from the Southern
Collegiate Athletic Conference to receive top honors for the time
period, and also awarded honorable mention to a video series
produced by Washington and Lee University.
